Is there any Shortcut key for typing DATE in AutoCAD

like in Excel "Ctrl + :" brings current date.
 
By default there isn't. If you have AutoCAD 2006 you can easily create a keyboard shortcut through your CUI for date. (type cui in the command line). Expand the heading for keyboard shortcuts.

You could create an alias in the express pulldown menu. The tool is called Command Alias Editor (v2006). Much easier to use than editing the old acad.pgp where all the aliases are stored.
